Weakness
CWE-502 — Deserialization of Untrusted Data

This CVE was published Sep 30, 2026 and is one of 8 known issues for this plugin.

Update, patch or deactivate.

Update Content Egg to 11.9.0 or a later supported release. An application-level fix should avoid deserializing untrusted PHP objects, use a validated data-only format, and enforce the intended capability before processing input.

A safe version is available, so updating to that version or later is the preferred remediation. If an immediate update is not practical, consider a targeted application patch or temporarily restricting the affected functionality.

Deactivate only when warranted by your risk profile, or when advised by your hosting provider in the limited circumstances where the vulnerability cannot otherwise be mitigated. If you’re unsure which action is appropriate, contact Fused or your hosting provider for guidance.
